left pull atfer spring install
i bout my 09 brand new last april. i put new 17" wheels with non directional tires on it about a month after i bought it. couple of months after i got some eibach pro-kit springs from the sumit store in ga. had them installed at my gm dealership by a gm tech that did an allignment right after. ever since i have had a pretty strong pull to the left. i have no idea what the prob is. i no some of you guys have gone way lower than the pro kit springs had any body else had or heard of this prob before i would hate to go back to stock spings but i think thats my only option.
|
i would try to take it back to the dealership and have them realign.
are you sure the pull isn't just the crown in the road? i had bad pull with my explorer but it was only on some roads. narrowed it down to excessive crowning. |
I would have them re-do the allignment.

You cant install springs and get them aligned the same day. You need to wait a week or 2 to let them settle. Also I would suggest rack spackers from ottp for those. Any spring upgrade will/can cause this.

i had my alignment done a few hours after i dropped it and never had a problem
|
if the pull is really that bad all the time, u should check your tires for for wear

My adjustments were front left toe actual .06 Before -.12 front right toe Actual .08 Before -.17 total toe Actual .14 before -.29 My cross camber,cross center and cross sai were all fine, just the toe was off...so in otherwords you may not feel that its off, but it is. |

You wont know when you have a problem till your tires wear out prematurely....I went without an alignment for for a whole set of tires, it never pulled to the left or right but the tires did not last as long as they should...

thats why i said that. my friend took apart his hie rods and didn't put it back close enough. you could feel how bad the tires were between each groove, and that was just from the drive home.
